Paper Mario has been de-compiled

[Spectremint]

The 2001 Nintendo 64 fan favorite Paper Mario has now officially reached 100% de-compiled status for the North American version, a community effort that's been going on for more than 3 years. This makes it the third Nintendo 64 exclusive game to be de-compiled, following Super Mario 64 and The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time. No word yet on a possible PC port. Additionally, the other versions of the game (those being the Japanese, European and Chinese versions) have yet to be fully de-compiled. You can read more about the project here, or take a look at the source code on GitHub.

Neat! ….and now we wait..

Still hoping something comes from that Perfect Dark decomp..

Hope the community fixes that annoying bug that crashes the game for hitting the same block for 420 years!

Wow this was not expected at all!
Amazing!

very easy compile, but I think the assets are baked into the file, which means it can't be shared:

Nothing yet ... It's inevitable that a Switch port be released. All in due time.

exactly, that's why you need the original rom for assets extraction, then with the assets extracted you can build your new version.

ah ok, I was thinking about the existing paper mario for Switch, you are talking about a port of this decompilation for Switch.

Duplicated, sorry.

Yeah, sm64 and perfect dark are the same way.

Can't wait for a PC port, then Switch port, then maxbots port

I'm hoping that OoT, PD and Paper Mario get Vita ports as someone who uses their Vita very often

There is a vita port of sm64. I did a build recently with 60fps iirc.

Wii U port in the future? I know there are a few ways to play Paper Mario already on it but they all have their compromises.

 

[Willlux]

Awesome! Can't wait to see a PC port

 

[mathew77]

Switch port FTW!..

Looking forward to a 60fps port, and maybe some sort of mod that adds TTYD features like the superguard, or one that slightly shifts the guard frames, because guarding in the original actually requires you to press the button earlier than you should.

There's already a SM64 Vita port available, but I'd love to see the games that you're hoping to get too.
